WIFE DUMPS BLOWHARD RUSH
The New York Post ^ | June 11, 2004 | Richard Johnson

Posted on 06/12/2004 1:32:23 PM PDT by NavySEAL F-16

RUSH Limbaugh put out a statement yesterday that he and his third wife, Marta, had separated — but only after PAGE SIX called to confirm what we'd learned exclusively. Sources in Palm Beach say Marta dumped the burly blowhard and vacated the couple's home on North Ocean Boulevard. The two are quietly working out a divorce agreement. Limbaugh met Marta on the Internet and they married in 1994. Since

Noticed three truths after reading the NYPost

1) It's still a rag.

2) Alec Baldwin is real nice guy to his former wife, to charities, to the President, and to the troops that protect his lifestyle.

3) The movie Intolerable Cruelty is becoming more and more a documentary of truth than a light-black comedy. Is there a genre called light- black comedy?

Didn't she have a magazine adventure (thanks to funding from her husband) that went tits up rather quickly?

Seems like the tie business was hers also. My recollection was she was an aerobics instructor when they met.

Yeah they mention all of Limbaugh's problems, but fail to mention her failed mag. I am sure it was tough on her to fail so pubically when he was publically successful.

Personally I have no view of her and think this is meaningless in terms of the public Limbaugh. As long as he did not lie under oath about his marriage/divorce, I am not sure why this information is more than just interesting but irrelevant to those of us not involved.

"Yes they met in a chat room. Ladies....Rush is on the market! :oD"

AHEM! I met a very nice woman from Brazil and she has a nice sister, if Rush is looking yet:):)

Yes. The reason that I posted this was because yesterday there were people trying to say that Rush released info on Friday night (ala the name I will not speak). I suggested then that the statement was released to get out in front of the news. I am just wondering who leaked it -- probably the dems from the county the divorce was filed. If I'm not mistaken, that's all we have in Palm Beach.

I imagine he will have to pay her at least 20 million not to write a book. If she were to write a book she would likely get an advance of at least five million plus launch a celebrity career which would provide her with millions for years to come.

I recall last year Harrison Ford had to pay is ex-wife 100 million. Rush must be in the same financial league as Ford and Marta has hit the Jackpot.

From the article---"but Marta may get more as she "knows where all of his skeletons are. That's why there are these . . . discussions."

What's next ...a book, perhaps?

We may be witnessing the birth of the global poster child representing how to turn a dime spent on the internet into millions.

It's a bit different. Harrison Ford was married to his wife for many more years. I think close to 30.

I can't believe that you guys automatically think it's her fault. That's the mentality that makes women leave men.

Rush May have to eat his words after giving so much grief to the "Toe Sucker" and the "Cigar Man"

She was also the one who 'designed' the ties he had for awhile. I think the magazine lasted 2 issues, if that.

I'm not a guy.

I'm a woman disgusted with the possibility (and I repeat...possibility) that Marta would use threats for financial gain.

I believe it's called blackmail.

In divorce court they look at money made during the marriage. During their Marriage Rush signed a 250 million dollar contract.

Half of 250 million is quite a pay day.

I don't think Marta is stupid enough to go public with a divorce. Rush is a master of media and can make it bigger than O.J.'s murders and would have fun too!

If you go by statistics, close to 70% of divorces are filed by women.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT TO BE TRUE? These are the facts that we DO know. Rush Limbaugh abused drugs for many years and is a workaholic. I LOVE RUSH, please don't get me wrong. But he doesn't seem like good marriage material. 10 years is a long time. We do not know her side of the story and quite frankly, I hope we never do. I wish them both well and I hope both find happiness after divorce.

I am sorry to hear that Rush is having personal difficulties.

As long as he keeps showing up everyday on the radio I will happy.

I always thought she was odd. First she dragged him to Florida, then she probably made him try to lose weight which may have caused him to start the pills.

Remember when she started her own magazine called Vent? It must have been a flop because I never heard him mention it again.

God Bless Rush, he is a good guy.
